Do you have some suggestions on how `isInterruptible` should be defined?
Do we have to double the amount of methods in the `MailboxExecutor`, to
provide versions of the existing methods, that would enqueue
"interruptible"
versions of mails? Something like:

    default void execute(ThrowingRunnable<? extends Exception> command,
String description) {
        execute(DEFAULT_OPTIONS, command, description);
    }

    default void execute(MailOptions options, ThrowingRunnable<? extends
Exception> command, String description) {
        execute(options, command, description, EMPTY_ARGS);
    }

    default void execute(
            ThrowingRunnable<? extends Exception> command,
            String descriptionFormat,
            Object... descriptionArgs) {
        execute(DEFAULT_OPTIONS, command, descriptionFormat,
descriptionArgs);
    }

   void execute(
            MailOptions options,
            ThrowingRunnable<? extends Exception> command,
            String descriptionFormat,
            Object... descriptionArgs);

   public static class MailOptions {
        (...)
        public MailOptions() {
        }

        MailOptions setIsInterruptible() {
            this.isInterruptible = true;
            return this;
        }
    }

And usage would be like this:

mailboxExecutor.execute(new MailOptions().setIsInterruptible(), () -> {
foo(); }, "foo");

?

Best,
Piotrek
